Nice "shot".
Some informations about bears in Finland:
Bears are most common in the east near the Russian border and in Lapland. Densities are highest in Northern Karelia.
link
In the Central Finland there are also quite big population, about 120 bears. Total cout is less than 1500 in Finland
BUT, It's not quite common to see bears in the wild. I have seen them only in the zoo.

Thanks for your interesting comment.
I walked the famous Itärajan Retkeilyreitti Kesä trail in july 2006 from Vartius till Hossa (164 km) in North-East Finland, alongside Russian border, and sometimes even in no man’s land. I’ve been told about a very important bear population in the area but I didn’t cross any. I’ve been also told that they don’t like human smell, so they keep away. I went back to Hossa then to Lehtovaara (on the Itärajan ) last July. That was the occasion to meet them with a guide hired from a farm called Arola. Observatories are about 1 hour walk from there, toward Russian border.
Regards,
